CHAPTER 2260 SHAMELESS COUPLEJared nodded. Then, he put away the skull in his Storage Ring before burying the rest of the skeleton
with the sand and silt on the ocean floor. Regardless of who this person was, he could now rest in
peace.
Jared didn't plan to follow the markings on the skull to search for ancient ruins or treasures at that
moment because he didn't have the time to spare. He needed to hurry back to Jadeborough to
participate in the Secret Realm Conference.
“Jared, Mr. Flaxseed, did you find anything?” Godrick asked curiously when he saw Jared and
Flaxseed return from under the sea.
“Nothing much, just a skeleton. If I had known, I wouldn't have tagged along,” Flaxseed said.
“Let's get going, then. We need to get back to Jadeborough as soon as possible!” Godrick urged.
After they came ashore, the gang boarded an airplane to fly back to Jadeborough.
novelbinWhile Jared and the others were rushing back to Jadeborough, the atmosphere within Stormwind Sect
was subdued and tense.
Tucker returned to Stormwind Sect with injuries. He reported the circumstances to Hugh. After learning
Jared's abilities had surpassed the Top Level of Ninth Level Martial Arts God, Hugh's expression turned
grim.
“Tucker, Tucker!” At that moment, Hugh's wife ran over anxiously. “Tucker, I heard you were wounded.
Are you all right? How did you lose to an upstart?” “I'm fine.” Tucker shook his head.
Hugh watched as his wife expressed great concern for Tucker, his eyes filled with intense rage. Still, he
suppressed his anger. “Tucker, this is a Healing Pill. Take it and get some rest.”
Hugh took out a green pill and handed it to Tucker.
“Thank you, Hugh.” Tucker received the pill gratefully and consumed it without hesitation.
A sneer spread across Hugh's face after he saw Tucker swallow the pill.
A few moments later, Tucker felt his internal organs churned. Immediately afterward, excruciating pain
erupted within him.
Tucker spat out a mouthful of blood before falling to the ground, his eyes riveted on Hugh in incredulity.
“Hugh, w-what did you give me?”
“That was an Intestine-crushing Pill. Anyone who took it would face inevitable death!” Hugh replied
while wearing a frosty smile.
“Tucker, Tucker!” Hugh's wife called out in perturbation before glaring at Hugh angrily. “Hugh, what are
you doing?”
“What am I doing? Of course, I'm killing him.” Hugh snorted.
“Why, Hugh? Why are you doing this?” Tucker asked as he was puzzled. “You still have the audacity to ask me why?” Hugh narrowed his eyes. His fury instantaneously burst
forth. “You're a shameless couple who have been cheating on me behind my back. Do you think I was
unaware of your betrayal? That Emiliano was your child. Don't assume I didn't know he was completely
unrelated to me. I sent him to the ancient ruins of Narcissus Palace because I knew that place was
dangerous, and he would most likely be sacrificed there. Unexpectedly, he really died. I couldn't be
happier with that outcome. Moreover, I instructed you to hunt down Jared with the intention of letting
him do away with you. Unfortunately, he failed to kill you and merely allowed you to return with grave
injuries. He might not have killed you, but I still won't let you live. After enduring this shame for so many
years, I can finally tear you two into pieces!”
Hugh's aura rapidly intensified and extended to engulf the duo before him.
Colors drained from Tucker's face as he realized their adulterous act had been exposed.
Hugh's wife also hastily begged for mercy. “Hugh, I was wrong. Please don't kill me. I promise I won't
repeat the same mistake...”
“Hmph! You want me to spare you, but you two were already plotting to assassinate me. Your schemes
could never escape my eyes! Go to h*ll, you shameless couple!”
Hugh waved his hand, and an enormous force instantly crushed his wife and Tucker into a pile of
bloody pulp.
Looking at his wife and sworn brother, who had suffered terrible deaths, Hugh remained unpacified. He
continued thrusting his fists, eventually demolishing the entire room.
